While you could be tempted to buy a soft tonneau cover to save money, this could be a costly choice. Although this type of cover will keep your tools dry; if you are counting on it for security you might as well leave your tools out in the open. The best security comes in the form of locking hard tonneau covers such as our BakFlip or RollBak covers.

Picking the Best Cover for Your Needs

When you are the proud owner of a pickup truck, you are going to find that you will need to pick from the various types of tonneau covers available to protect whatever you choose to carry in the bed. The hard part is deciding which style is going to be your best choice. You should start by discarding any idea of buying one of those cheap vinyl covers as they do not last long and provide no theft protection.

A much better choice would be one of the hard tonneau covers that we custom manufacture at Bak Liner. Among the more popular choices are our BakFlip covers that fold up in sections and lets you open some or all of your bed. This tonneau cover not only locks securely to prevent theft, it folds up flush against the back of your cab to leave the entire bed open when you need to carry a big load.

Do I Really Need One?

When you may have bought your truck for personal use and do not use it haul or store anything of any great value, you should probably still install a tonneau cover. You are most likely going to use your pickup truck to do things like grocery shopping and other personal errands. If you do this with an open bed, your purchases can be stolen or exposed to rain, snow and the rest of whatever the weather can throw at them.

Even if you never use your truck to carry anything, installing a Bak Liner tonneau cover can help you save money every time you go for a drive. This is because the tailgate of your truck works just like an air dam and cuts down on your fuel economy. By adding a tonneau cover you create a much more streamlined aerodynamically correct shape, this can help improve your fuel consumption significantly.

Aluminum Tonneau Covers

Our Covers Are Built to Last

Although the vast majority of people buy aluminum tonneau covers for their durability, most of them also want their tonneau covers to look good. Bak Liner aluminum tonneau covers are manufactured from aircraft grade aluminum to ensure that they are among the most durable on the market. However, we realize that strength is not everything and we are proud to be able to say that they will stay looking beautiful for many years.

Our aluminum tonneau covers are finished with a very rugged powder coated enamel that has been chosen because it will stand up to the worst that Mother Nature has to offer. Many of our competitors choose to spray on their finishes. This may look good when the tonneau cover is new, but it does not take long before this type of finish is scratched and peeling, leaving a very ugly cover on your truck.

Make Your Life Easier with One of Our Retractable Tonneau Covers

When you have a truck, you will find that doing the weekly shopping can be much easier as the bed offers you plenty of room for everything you buy. However, being able to keep all of your purchases safer and out of the weather can be different story. If you install one of our latest styles of retractable tonneau covers on your truck bed, you will get all of the protection you need without the extra weight and wind resistance of a fiberglass cap.  Truck caps are very useful, but unless you really need the space they are not the most economical solution.

Most people tend to think of tonneau covers as those vinyl covers held in place with dozens of snaps. These are not the easiest solution when you have your arms full of shopping in the rain. When you install one of the retractable tonneau covers form Bak Liner you simply unlatch them and push them towards the front of the bed giving you instant access to the bed and then pull them closed when you are done.
